Rented C2 a week late for the tourney.  A great looking game but I'm tired of auto-save fps now.  I had to replay the prologue to get the SS and Vet diff achs to pop.  Strange.  Froze a lot.  Jmo but Vanquish SP was more fun and games like Dead Space, Gears, Halo and Bioshock are in another league.  No idea what MP is like.  I do hope Crytek's console engine gets some use. I'm not helping their move to consoles by renting.     

How you doin Neo?  Quiet around here but I appreciate the weekly statfest.  I see you and Matrix tried out  Venetica.  You don't see the Atari logo much anymore.  The 60ish meta doesn't worry me and she looks like an ancestor of the legendary Lady Croft.  At $40 I think I'll give it a spin.

The big complaint seems to be repetitive combat but It looks better than some of the rpgs I've waded through.  Time to rebuy Divinity 2.  That game was better than most and the expanded DKS version is $40 as well.

You must be psyched for the Duke.  One of the Boston channels was trying to start a controversy about him butt-slapping the working girls.  Compared to the level of good old-fashioned gratuitous sex and violence it's a  non-starter to me.  What am I saying?  It's intrinsic to character portrayal.  Intrinsic S & V.

I have been busy with out of town visitors this week.  My gaming has suffered!  And with Berstuck breathing down my back I have to find a way to get more game time in!

Venetica is brutal. Definately the worst RPG I have played this gen so far...

I was warned about cam issues etc. by both you and LordMatrix2004 but bought it anyway.  I'm a sucker for punishment.  I need some rpg time and Nier just wasn't getting it done.  Have you seen the TA solution for growing one White Moonflower Seed for 10 gs?  Anyone who could max that game makes me look ADHD. So it's DKS first and if V is as bad as some people are saying I can always get $20 back in a month.  Thursday again.

Blue Dragon, Costume Quest, Resonance of Fate, Star Ocean, Magna Carta 2, The Last Remnant, Phantasy Star II, and the FPS/RPG Borderlands are future options you should consider.



Get Harbor Master for W7P...its hella fun!

Man, I'm really falling behind in the league standings and the gap is ever increasing.  Glad DKS made tourney, I thought that the time for that was already over when I bought it.  I bought it just because I wanted it.  Nice bonus.  Although Berstuck had a bit of a head start what with UK getting it a month before us.

Looking at my played games list it was actually back in November when i played Divinity 2 DKS. Strange that you guys across the pond get a game so much later than us, if anything its usually the other way around. Hope all you guys playing it are enjoying it. Out of all the lower budget wrpg's released this gen it was definitely one of my favourites.



Berstuck:  The league shows you as Plat for the game now thanks to Matrix and Neo giving it a try but TA doesn't have your details.  If you still own it could you pop it in so it reregisters?  No big deal.  I hope Matrix likes it half as much as I do.  Finally back to Sentinel Island so things are picking up but that's still a long way from the new content.

You're alive and well JPL.  You can play catch-up if you feel like it.  I'm surprised to be pretty close to you in a couple of cats at this point.  The league pts seem to favour finishers like eN and Ronster which seems fair to me and I have managed to plat a few this year.  Enjoy.

I originally thought that as well Recon but TA has the EU version and the North American version both listed seperately although they have identical achievements.  If you click on my games played on the TA web site you'll see DKS is on my first page down near the bottom.



Damn I'm really falling behind in the league now!
